V. Bourhill Tutorial time: 2:15 607b1795 Tutor: Richard Marshall 09 April 2008 Seminar 2: The Myth of the “Okies” The Grapes of Wrath written by John Steinbeck represents the Dust Bowl and Great Depression era and all the pain and suffering that came with it. Keith Winschuttle in his article The Myth of the Okies sets out to dismiss Steinbeck’s book as a reliable source of history but rather as a novel that captures people’s feelings instead of the true nature of the events. Winschuttle points out Steinbeck’s inaccuracies that deem the novel unreliable. These inaccuracies are discussed below.

Life reproduced the song's sheet music and lyrics in a story about Rodger Young in March 5, 1945. This, and the return of Young's remains in 1949, added to the song's popularity, with several best-selling recordings being made, by Burl Ives and Nelson Eddy among others, by the end of the decade. There is a short mention of Young in Robert A. Heinlein's 1949 short story "The Long Watch". In Heinlein's Hugo-winning 1959 novel Starship Troopers, the troop transport TFCT Rodger Young is named for him and the Loesser ballad is featured prominently throughout the book. At the end of the book after the novel is a "Historical Note" with Heinlein's retelling of Young's citation for gallantry.
